Convert Vertex Type (2D/3D)

Description
The tool allows one to convert the vertex type of shapes from 'XY' (2D) to 'XYZ/M' (3D) and vice versa. The conversion from 3D to 2D is not lossless for lines and polygons, as only the Z/M value of one vertex can be retained (currently that of the last vertex).
